Linear is a good app to run a team using scrum. It is much simpler to use and doesn't require a lot of configuration and set-up. It also integrates with GIthub, so that your tasks get updated automatically when you perform actions like, opening a PR, assigning reviewers and merging or closing a PR. It also provides helpful charts. However, it does have a confusing structure, in which you have two competing views: the active sprint (called "cycle") and all the active tasks (called "active"), regardless if they are a part of the sprint or not. Linear defaults to opening the "active" view, so if you don't pay attention, you may think you are in the sprint ("cycle") view and may end up taking tasks that are outside the sprint.

Nice and clean! Love the shortcuts and just how fast it makes project management. Tried others, and nothing comes close to using Linear. The number of integrations with other tools keeps increasing and makes it so much easier to use.

our team uses it but as we've gotten more busy it ends up just being used as a trash can for stuff no one is working on...

Kudos to the Linear and Figma teams for launching this killer integration! As a big fan of both tools, I'm super excited to streamline my design and engineering workflow with this plugin. πŸ™Œ Can't wait to see how this further enhances collaboration and productivity! Just out of curiosity, any other cool features in the pipeline? Looking forward to seeing what's next. πŸ‘€πŸš€

The cleanest task management product out there. Great to start out with, for both personal & work. Only downside is that it doesn't feel as robust as something like Asana with custom fields & multiple project assignments.

Best backlog manager I've experienced. Lots of shortcuts, great UX, just enough features for the vast majority of projects.

I've been using it on several projects for probably a year now! And I believe it's the best thing on the market. What I like: Super fast. I haven't encountered such fast applications in a long time. It's like I'm not even on the internet; everything loads instantly! Unique philosophy. By that, I mean the way they describe how to use their product is very well done. There are things that are missing, but still, it's the best product.
